The Double effect block creates the impression
that one or more vocalists are singing in unison,
with small differences in the timing and timbre of
each voice. Some refer to doubling as “thicken-
ing” or “double tracking”. The latter references a
recording studio method of singing the same vo-
cal part on two separate tracks and playing them
back simultaneously.

ing can feel “larger” or more effected.
